lever to P. Also, to prevent battery discharge, leave the engine running while
customizing the features.
WARNING

As the engine needs to be running during customization, ensure that the
vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such
as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may
collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health
hazard.
NOTICE
■During customization
To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while cus-
tomizing features.
